114 | Galligari\r\n\r\nAbstract\r\n\r\nFlood risk reduction at the local | ||||
115 | scale requires knowledge of the settlements which are most exposed to | ||||
116 | floods, and those where the existing measures are insufficient to | ||||
117 | handle the threats. The knowledge on spatial dynamics of the flooded | ||||
118 | human settlements is limited, especially that of the smaller ones, | ||||
119 | such as the settlements in the sub-Saharan Africa. The dataset on 122 | ||||
120 | flooded settlements in the Dosso Region (Niger) offers information on: | ||||
121 | the built-up area and the number of buildings with corrugated iron | ||||
122 | roofs in 2004, 2012, and 2019 (average dates), the type of human | ||||
123 | settlements (city, rural town, village, or hamlet), the flood dates | ||||
124 | and the number of buildings collapsed between 2011 and 2019. The data | ||||
125 | on the built-up area and the number of buildings with corrugated iron | ||||
126 | roofs were extracted by visual photointerpretation from very | ||||
127 | high-resolution images accessible through Google Earth Pro. The | ||||
128 | information on the settlement category was obtained from the Human | ||||
129 | Settlements National Directory (French acronym, ReNaLoc) published by | ||||
130 | the National Institute of Statistics of Niger. The dates of floods and | ||||
131 | the data on the number of collapsed buildings were obtained from the | ||||
132 | open-access national database on flooding, known by the French | ||||
133 | acronym, BDINA. These data can be reused to build a geodatabase for | ||||
134 | flood risk reduction and to draft the municipal and regional | ||||
135 | development plans. Their potential reuse allows for the identification | ||||
136 | of settlements undergoing the most rapid physical expansion, built-up | ||||
137 | area in a flood-prone zone, and settlements that require protection | ||||
138 | and flood risk reduction policies. Additionally, the dataset can also | ||||
139 | be used to verify the accuracy of the built-up area obtained from the | ||||
140 | satellite images with coarse resolution and for comparisons with other | ||||
141 | regions in Niger and in sub-Saharan Africa.\r\n", | ||||

829 | Galligari\r\n\r\nAbstract\r\n\r\nFlood risk reduction at the local | ||||
830 | scale requires knowledge of the settlements which are most exposed to | ||||
831 | floods, and those where the existing measures are insufficient to | ||||
832 | handle the threats. The knowledge on spatial dynamics of the flooded | ||||
833 | human settlements is limited, especially that of the smaller ones, | ||||
834 | such as the settlements in the sub-Saharan Africa. The dataset on 122 | ||||
835 | flooded settlements in the Dosso Region (Niger) offers information on: | ||||
836 | the built-up area and the number of buildings with corrugated iron | ||||
837 | roofs in 2004, 2012, and 2019 (average dates), the type of human | ||||
838 | settlements (city, rural town, village, or hamlet), the flood dates | ||||
839 | and the number of buildings collapsed between 2011 and 2019. The data | ||||
840 | on the built-up area and the number of buildings with corrugated iron | ||||
841 | roofs were extracted by visual photointerpretation from very | ||||
842 | high-resolution images accessible through Google Earth Pro. The | ||||
843 | information on the settlement category was obtained from the Human | ||||
844 | Settlements National Directory (French acronym, ReNaLoc) published by | ||||
845 | the National Institute of Statistics of Niger. The dates of floods and | ||||
846 | the data on the number of collapsed buildings were obtained from the | ||||
847 | open-access national database on flooding, known by the French | ||||
848 | acronym, BDINA. These data can be reused to build a geodatabase for | ||||
849 | flood risk reduction and to draft the municipal and regional | ||||
850 | development plans. Their potential reuse allows for the identification | ||||
851 | of settlements undergoing the most rapid physical expansion, built-up | ||||
852 | area in a flood-prone zone, and settlements that require protection | ||||
853 | and flood risk reduction policies. Additionally, the dataset can also | ||||
854 | be used to verify the accuracy of the built-up area obtained from the | ||||
855 | satellite images with coarse resolution and for comparisons with other | ||||
856 | regions in Niger and in sub-Saharan Africa.\r\n", | ||||
